Practical Handbook of the Polish Language: Containing the Alphabet, Pronunciation, Fluency Exercises, Rules of Grammar, Various Conversations, Etc.
Of the three million Poles in the United States a great number speak English only imperfectly or not at all, so that it is convenient for those who deal with them to have some knowledge of the Polish language. Mr. Baluta's handbook is intended to enable those who study it to give necessary instructions to Polish workmen, servants, and other employees, to transact business in buying and selling, or to carry on simple conversations on such matters as health, time, meals, the weather, the war, and the common activities of daily life.

The book is well planned, with due attention given to pronunciation and grammar, with dialogues presenting a great number of practical words and phrases used in the language of every-day life, and with a vocabulary giving a comprehensive list of words in daily use. It will be useful to those who come into contact with Poles, or to those who would like to read Polish newspapers, or Sienkiewicz, for instance, in the original.
